Portrait of Matt Robertson

Matt
Robertson

Matt Robertson is a British‑born, Canadian‑based composer, producer, and musical director — three times Grammy‑nominated. He has worked as musical director and arranger with FKA Twigs, Björk, Anohni, Arca, and The Cinematic Orchestra.

Eleven albums under his own name balance ambient sound design with warm organic techno and ripples of delicate electronics. Forecast (2013), In Echelon (2016) and Entology (2018) have been described as symphonic electronica and leftfield techno that's cinematic in scale (Mixmag), evocative, expansive, and original (Electronic Sound), and Nils Frahm's modern classical meets Jon Hopkins' grainy techno (MOJO).

Growing up on Jean‑Michel Jarre and Jimmy Smith, Matt graduated from the University of Surrey before working in London studios — learning to fix, and later build, his own synths. Working with a collection of vintage, modern and DIY instruments, he combines electronic production with classical composition and cinematic soundscapes. His work with Anoushka Shankar earned two Grammy nominations; he recently scored The New Corporation — The Unfortunately Necessary Sequel and Navalny.
